Nice shot, Donna. I like how you've made the young one part of the image and that he/she is in wonder of the view. Colors are very complementary to the entire image.. well done. #1486383Terry A. Stoa September 14, 2012
OK - I just read your 101 message - it's your 17-year old daughter in this image... still "young" by my books. #10322807Donna La Mattino Pagakis September 14, 2012
Thanks Terry! Yes, she is young. But growing up way too quickly!!!! #10322822Donna La Mattino Pagakis September 14, 2012

An intensely interesting image, Donna; your daughter is practically transformed into a mermaid by her surroundings! Lovely. #10323536Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
